  • WINE is WINE Is Not Emulation. It's right there in the name in the name.

  • Honestly, any comparison to Sam Vimes is a compliment. Unless it's the alcoholism.

  • I pooted.

  • +1 for Mumble. I set up a load of Android PoC devices with a Mumble server and it's honestly like having walkie-talkies that work over the Intertubes.

  • Couldn't agree more. I have no idea why phone companies are not being held accountable for allowing this. For email, it's a solved problem. Why not phone?

  • That was my first thought. I'd happily have one of these, but wall-mounted somewhere with high footfall, displaying a dashboard of some kind.

  • Meanwhile, the North of England bucked the trend by being clear. The aurora was visible in town, despite your directions light pollution, but I still drove out to the country for an hour at 2am to get a better view.

  • Two videos for you to watch:

    Hyper-Reality, a PoV short film featuring an overqualified gig worker in a world of ubiquitous, ad-laden and heavily enshittified AR. https://youtu.be/YJg02ivYzSs

    This Euro-News article which features a Murdoch-owned advertising agency trying to get train windows turned into bone-conducting acoustic transmitters so weary travellers are forced to listen to ads as they resr their heads. https://youtu.be/1KZATgg7bJo

  • A well is the inverse of a stick.

  • Serious question:

    Is it pronounced bour-joys-ee or bour-joys?

  • rule

  • OMG is this loos?

    • Goes out of their way to post in a public forum.
    • Insists they have no need for a public forum.
  • They're scanned by the sorting equipment. When a stamp is issued with a particular number that number can then be used exactly once, at least in theory.

  • Primative Technology. That guy is just... unfathomableable. Pots, fire, bricks, crops, shelter, kilns, repeat, no words, no justification. We can't even be certain the guy in the video wrote the subtitles. Has he ever even acknowledged the camera? Is he a good guy? Evil? How would I tell? Does it even matter?

  • It's a shame I always miss that monologue because I use that time to run around locking all the exits and eating the keys.

  • If you admire Technology Connections, take a look at Cathode Ray Dude. Exudes a lot of the same energy.
